Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts is in the midst of multiple home improvement projects. Replacing her sump pump to maintain a dry basement is a priority. Her basement floods when it rains and has experienced up to 8 inches of water at a time. This homeowner wants to prevent water buildup and eliminate the exposure of mold, which is why she reached out to our team for a permanent solution.

Our Design Specialist recommended installing WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system, along the edges of the basement. This would then filter to our SuperSump, an economical yet very effective pump system that can pump 2,220 gallons of water an hour safely out of the home. After talking to our specialist, this homeowner opted to get the SuperSump installed. Our installation crew dismantled the old sump pump and put the SuperSump in place. Additionally, IceGuard was added to the outside drainage line. This product is designed to keep water flowing freely despite cold temperatures and prevent freezing pipes.

With this system in place, the homeowner's basement will be kept safe. Our team was happy to offer a sump pump system that meets her basement's needs.

This homeowner in Hopkinton, NH had been dealing with water in their basement for years. Water was constantly leaking in through their concrete, cinderblock foundation wall. 

Our team proposed and installed a complete waterproofing system to help them keep their basement permanently dry.  The WaterGuard and trench drain system will collect all water entering through the walls and direct it towards the TripleSafe sump installed at the low point of the basement. The sump system also includes a battery back-up for extra security against any power outages.

This homeowner in Hopkinton, New Hampshire, purchased their home about a year ago. When they purchased the home the seller told them the basement hadn't flooded. Within a year of owning the home, the basement had water in it twice. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and looked at the basement to solve their water issues. We recommended installing a full-perimeter drainage system. The system included WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump, IceGuard, Exterior Drainage, and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. 

This homeowner in Westford, Massachusetts, has seen water entering their basement. Their old sump pump isn't doing the job it used to, so the homeowners decided to call EFS to find a solution for stopping water from entering their basement. Our Design Specialist visited the home and recommended installing a new sump pump and perimeter drainage into the basement to prevent water from collecting in the basement. 

This homeowner had noticed water accumulating in their basement, but recently it started getting significantly worse. Every time there was heavy rain, the basement would flood. This problem led to an annoying cleanup process, as well as the basement becoming filled with moisture. Signs of mold even started to arise. In order to solve this problem, the homeowner reached out to our Erickson Foundation Solutions team.

After our Design Specialist completed the home inspection, they recommended installing our SuperSump, a sump pump that disposes of unwanted water safely. This water is captured around the perimeter of the basement before having the chance to enter and filtered to the sump pump. Once the water is expelled out of the home, our IceGuard system is attached to the plumbing in order to allow water to flow even if the pipes freeze. This further guarantees that the sump pump won't overflow and flood the basement.

With this waterproof system in place, the homeowner can now rely on his basement being a dry, welcoming space.
